5 December – Tawa Christmas Parade:

Tawa Rotary has been asked to supply a minimum of 6 members to assist Tawa Lions with the Xmas Parade on Saturday 5 Dec. The meeting time is 1.40pm at Mexted Motors. Can anyone able to help please e-mail Chris Black.

7 and 8 December - Toot4Tucker:

Can all Rotarians please keep these dates free as we are looking to have a large turnout. This collection, led by Tawa Rotary, is being undertaken in conjunction with local service organisations, family and friends. Hoping for great weather as we go through the streets of Tawa!

Christmas – Pot Luck Progressive Dinner

Back by popular demand is the “Pot Luck Progressive Dinner” on Saturday 12th December 2015, from 6.30pm.

Attendees do the cooking and keep us all guessing!

‘progressive’ - attendees go from house to house.

Event outline - three homes for entrees, three homes for mains, and then a central home for dessert and coffee.

Each couple will be allocated their venues (and timetable) to attend, and one of those venues to provide their ‘pot luck dish’.

Being as we are responsible drivers, and conscious of the new drink driving laws, the emphasis of the event is food and fellowship, but you are welcome to assist with BYO.

Malcolm invites offers of hosts, and Club Service believes hosts don’t need to provide a ‘pot luck dish’, but perhaps a few drinks. Otherwise there is no cost.

Hope you are all able to attend - we will be contacting you all in the next few days to see if you able to join us.
